    So...When did Kurt Angle get so thin? I watched TNA for the first time in 2 months and he looked different.

    I, personally, see Triple H winning it, just because of the weeks and weeks of television they've dedicated to him overcoming the odds and finally getting into the Rumble. I hope I'm not right, and Orton wins it, because he's just too badass not to win it. And Rev Theory is supposed to be playing "Voices" live tomorrow night on RAW anyway.

    I honestly think, should Triple H win the Rumble, JBL will take the title from Cena, setting up the climax of the Michaels/JBL storyline at WrestleMania. It makes sense, I think. From a kayfabe point of view, the winner of a championship match gets the biggest purse. This could cure Michaels' financial woes, and get him out of the contract with JBL.

    The rumor is that Christian has been behind the attacks on Jeff Hardy (hit & run, pyro incident, stairwell attack at SS, etc). I think Edge takes it tonight, setting up Trips/Edge at 'Mania, and Jeff/Christian too, in a grudge match.

    This leaves to big holes in WrestleMania: John Cena and The Undertaker. They haven't "feuded" in years, and it's the biggest possible inter promotional match they can promote right now. Better than Umaga/Batista from last year, anyway. If they're serious about Cena, and the rumors are true and 'Taker will hang it up at the 25th anniversary of WrestleMania, in his homestate... Cena is a good choice.

    Could Shane's punches have been anymore fake? :lol:

    There was one point when he was 'punching' Orton on the ramp and it was clearly visable that the punches wern't anywhere near connecting with Orton...at one point Orton was just staring as Shane was punching nothing. :lol:

    I marked like a bitch during Orton's promo about shutting the WWE and WrestleMania down. Like, I know it's fake and shit, but kayfabe wise... god, Orton has some massive balls to say that. It was just fucking cool.

    Indeed. Orton has gotten balls impressive since his first World Title days. Boy was that horrible. But man does the guy have the heel pattened down to a T. Orton fuckin' rocks it.

    EDIT: Oh shit, just realized that you assholes fucked with me over Orton. :lol:

    I completely missed the opening promo. I went upstairs and randomly threw on ECW as background noise since I haven't cared in a couple weeks. They come back from commerical and there he's standing. I marked.

    Why the fuck did they put him on ECW?...He was upset when they moved him from Raw to Smackdown and now he's back but on ECW...

    Also why the hell didn't they just use his old Waterproof Blonde theme song instead of that weird cover?

    I was looking forward to his return but that was crap. :lol:

    Yeah. I was glad to see him back, I'm kind of half surprised they didn't give him a bigger return, but at the same time I'm not.

    He's there on ECW to give the brand a little push after Hardy left there pretty much. After him and Evan Bourne getting hurt, they needed a big name to help out. Besides, RAW is crowded as it is and Smackdown is no good because Trips and 'Taker are battling it out over who's the backstage leader. :lol:

    Punishment for being in TNA = Possibly. Right move = Absolutely.

    I'm really pissed, but not so much at the same time.

    WWE fired Scotty Goldman (Colt Cabana). Why it sucks that they had "nothing for him", it's bullshit. They should've had plenty for him. He's a good talent with a great character. Yet, The Boogeyman is still around. Assholes. Can't wait to see Colt back in the indies.

    Speaking of, anybody who has HDnet, Ring of Honor premieres on March 21st.

    Whoa. Apparently according to the MySpace's of Sunny and the Blue Meanie, Andrew "Test" Martin died. Holy shit. Still don't know if this is true or not.

    the wrestling sites are 'confirming' it. he was only 33 years old, it's fucking crazy. they say the cause is unknown, but more than likely, roids or just drugs in general.... very sad. :(

    Alot of people seem to think he'll either venture into the MMA business (he almost brokered a deal between PRIDE FC and WWE a few years ago before UFC bought PRIDE), or will jump onto his mother's senate campaign.
